RE: Confessions – Our Unschooling Journey – Part 3
I really like this post. As a dad of two girls, one bio and one step child, each coming with some some hairy history with the other bio parent, I feel like I am only learning new ways to fail. No one has written the owner's manual though. The best we can do is share with other parents so we can all fail better and sometimes even suceed!
I'm glad you found it 😊
Steps can be hard I think. My hubby is step to our boys but he's their father in every important way. I think eschewing the notion of control is even more beneficial with steps because it erases the possibility of that "You're not my real parent" antagonism. I hope you stick around for upcoming posts on the actual nuts and bolts changes we made that have led to a far more peaceful and joyous family unit. Best of luck to you and yours 😊
Yes I am looking forward to more posts. Mine are still young so we've got a lot of new adventures ahead!
